Story

As all of you will know, I absolutely hate running - I don't feel better after having done a run, I hate it before, during and after. However, I was meant to run a half marathon in 2023 in memory of my Grandad who sadly passed away, but then I had to pull out of running as I fell pregnant with Ada. This year I managed to get a spot running on behalf of Children's Hospital Trust South Africa and it feels like it was meant to be as my Grandad was South African. I know wherever he is, he'll be very proud of me. Now I just have to somehow get round the course...

Thank you in advance for supporting me and donating whatever you can, it will make a massive difference and will give me the motivation I need to train and actually run on the day.
